The property at Rufus Road, Carlisle is a four-bedroom detached house with three bathrooms, and a total area of 1,342 sqft. The list price is £335,000.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It is modern in style with a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms. The finishes are high-quality and the property looks well-maintained. There is evidence of a well-maintained garden with artificial turf and a decked patio area.
The location in Botcherby & Harraby North, Carlisle, benefits from being relatively close to several schools, including Pennine Way Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and St John Henry Newman Catholic School. Carlisle train station is approximately 4.91km away, providing access to Avanti West Coast and Northern Trains services. The proximity to these amenities makes this a desirable location for families.
Considering the average house price in the area is £265,698 and the average price per sqft is £346, the list price of £335,000 for this 1,342 sqft property seems reasonable, particularly given its modern condition and the inclusion of a well-maintained garden. The property is larger than the average house in the area (1342 sqft vs 767 sqft). While some nearby properties are listed at lower prices, these are often smaller or of a different type (semi-detached or apartments). The higher price reflects the larger size and superior condition of the Rufus Road property.
The property benefits from a good location, excellent condition, and a well-maintained garden. The asking price appears to reflect these factors accurately within the context of the local market.
